Very useful videos Jaco. I have already done some of the stuff shown and you're spot on 😜 Rocam is a tough little engine, quite remarkable in a number of ways. It also has a few irritating features 🤣 The concentric slave cylinder being one. A honda Ballade takes 10 minutes! That plastic thermostat housing. Actually the plastic parts in general but this is everywhere nowadays.
Thank you very much for this video I am doing my timing chain, cv joints axal completely new, my Bandam is making a rumbling noise when she starts up, so I hope by replacing the timing chain and components with the oil pump that that should be gone otherwise it's in the head, but I don't hope so. Any Ideas it sounds like the oil is priming for the first couple of seconds, MY 1600 Bantam has 300 000 km on the clock and.
hi Jaco, die prosedure vir 'n Ford Icon rocam is seker omtrent dieselfde, ek het volgende week een om te vervang, baie dankie, die video het baie gehelp. Groete Francois
Basically, the same as breaks. there is a bleed valve on the clutch slave cylinder. get the laaitie to pump the clutch while you open and close the bleed valve. let me know if you do not get it right.
Привет, я тоже снимаю видео. У меня Форд Фокус 1 1.6 Duratec Rocam. Двигатель и коробка одинаковые как я понял, мне тоже предстоит снятие головы блока цилиндров, замена ГРМ... Спасибо за видео!
@@billiemor296 if I had to do it again, I would take off the bonnet ant take the engine and gearbox out as a unit and work on it outside of the vehicle.
On the concentric slave cylinder there is 2 ports. One is the hydraulic input. 2nd is the bleed valve. You will need 2people. Depress the clutch. Pedal. Open the bleed valve to release pressure. Close bleed valve. Release clutch pedal. Depress clutch pedal. Release bleed valve. Close bleed valve release clutch pedal. Repeat till all air is removed.
Hi Jaco, great video,you are my mentor lol. I did an engine overhaul including changing clutch kit and the slave cylinder however I'm getting no clutch. I tried bleeding it however the clutch is not getting hard. Please help me buddy. Thank you
The reason for the engine overhaul was due to a blown head gasket however the bantam is still heating up pass the half mark. I removed the thermostat and installed a new water pump. The fan does come on and stays on for long and there after the head gauge rises pass half mark. What could be the problem? Thank you again.
The clutch is an absolute ball-ache to bleed. You need to be 2 people. Get one of the kids to depress the clutch pedal to build up pressure then you bleed off the air on the concentric slave cylinder. But note it takes for ever.and bleed it again a couple of days later.
@@JacoBadenhorst @Jaco Badenhorst I used anti freeze coolant and I have not changed the cap due to the cap seeming to be sealing fine, should I replace that? And I purchased a radiator flush today so I will try that as an option and I'll keep you posted.
@@JacoBadenhorst I managed to get some pressure on the clutch pedal however it won't select any gears and I did not remove the gear selector because I had removed the engine block and replaced everything there including the clutch. Any ideas?
Sorry about that. There is no place to film down there. It is basically the same as bleeding brakes. Get your son or someone to pump the pedal while you open and close the bleed port.
@@JacoBadenhorst No problem. I did learn that I'm never changing my own clutch haha. I did do my waterpump last weak. That was easy enough. I thought bleading my clutch may help since I'm stuggling to engage second. Sometimes it will go but usually doesn't.
@@gerritgeldenhuys2763 yes bleeding the clutch isn't to much work. Give it a go. Hopefully it's just air in the system and not the clutch plate itself.
Thank you Jaco. You a lifesaver. Appreciation from Pretoria
Super glad I could help!
Thank you sir, this helped a lot

How do I replace my selector seal on Ford bantam rocam 1300
Hi. Waar kry jy die adapter vir die pyp op die Slave cylinder
Die adapter het saam met die slave cylinder gekom in die verpakking. Vra vir jou plaaslikke spares shop. Hulle behoort dit te kan kry.
Vidoe bleeding clutch please
What oil did you put in gearbox
75W90 GL-5 synthetic high pressure gear oil.
Quick question when replace the whole engine should I remove the gear box and mount it outside

@@sumeethsamlall4264 dis you flush the radiator? What coolant are you using? Did You replace the pressure cap on the coolant reservoir?

I watched the whole video to see how you bleed the clutch in the end. Hmm, didn't show that.

How do I blow the clutch
